This is achieved through the use of bespoke facilities management software, AutoCAD and Revit. Ongoing preparation for the implementation of Building Information Modelling, including BIM execution plan, BIM protocol & employer's information requirements. Monitoring, managing & issuing work requests logged on our Facilities service desk through the use of pre-defined service level agreements stored in our CAFM system. Estate & Maintenance team support for Archibus FM mobile working. Developed processes and procedures which has seen the Facilities department move to a mobile working environment, implementing the necessary software which allows teams to efficiently and effectively receive work requests and information, wherever they are based on University sites. Preparation of the annual Estates Management Statistics return, and other documentation relating to estates data. Preparation of Planned Maintenance schedules and service contracts, ensuring the Facilities Management Software System is utilised to plan PPM schedules and is regularly updated after maintenance. Establishing and monitoring / updating protocol for storage of drawings procedures, undertaken within AutoCAD plans. This involves confirming layers & configuration required, ensuring all plans are polylined to the standards expected. Carrying out Building audits in collaboration for and with the Projects team to safeguard the accuracy of building data for on-going refurbishment / new build works.
